The U.S. basketball team had never lost an Olympic game in 36 years,
but the Soviet Union’s team surprised the Americans in the 1972 Munich
Games. With just six seconds left, the USSR was clinging to a one-point
lead when American Doug Collins was deliberately fouled. Collins
sank both of his free throws, giving the US. its first lead, 50-49,
with three seconds left.

The Soviets inbounded, but Rooskie coaches walked out onto the
floor - a technical foul. One second showed on the clock.

But, what's this?

The clock was set back to 3 seconds? Soviet ball!

Once again they inbound, and take a desperate shot that falls short as time expires.

But, what's this?

Officials yet again reset the clock to three seconds?!? A length of the court pass goes to Soviet star Sasha Belov, who charges past two defenders to score at the buzzer. This time, it's over. You can watch the final
three minutes here,
if you can stand it. It was for me a practical demonstration of how a
predatory power can and will, if it controls the right officials,
practice prestidigitation of that transparency at will.

Here's a scene from what I will suggest are spawn of that bankrupt
system, today's Democrat party. Not as dramatic as their recent Al Franken miracleshot perhaps, but an example of pervasive decay and stench from this ... this Obamacy.

Spitzer to Deliver Harvard Lecture on Ethics?

The former New York governor will be giving a lecture tomorrow at
Harvard's Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center for Ethics. The talk is
titled "From Ayn Rand to Ken Feinberg – How Quickly the Paradigm
Shifts. What Should be the Rationale for Government Participation in
the Market?"

It's unclear whether Spitzer will be paid by the hour or simply given a flat fee for services rendered. [Weekly Standard Blog]

I
get to do this rant every four years, which is prolly how long it's
been. Anyone who's been around C&S for very long knows how
much I despise political correctness. D-E-S-P-I-S-E. That
goes for its practitioners. Numb nutted pussies, all. But to the
quick. I don't often utter the word nigger for these reasons only.

I would be immediately branded as being from the
uneducated lower classes, an insult to my parents who did everything
possible to see me educated.

It's offensive to many people, thus impolite.

Actually the term is a derivative of the Southern drawled "nigra"
for Negro., which soon became "nigger." So that's a whole
different thing from calling a Jew, "kike," or "sheeney," both of which
were meant to disparage. My Chicago blue collar neighborhood
upbringing left me entirely comfortable using the words dago, spick,
wop, mick, and Polack ("so two Dagos walk into a bar"). My kids
were not raised in that environment, and are not comfortable with those
epithets. Fine. Of course use of any word, with the wrong inflection, is a fighting word.

"So, Dougy, is your mommy letting you go to the game? [Whack!]

"So, Dougy, is your mommy letting you go to the game? [No, I wet the bed again]

.I hope that explains how I feel, because if it is ever appropriate to call someone a nigger, it would be this guy. To his face. Because he is a racist MFCS, and I mean to offend and infuriate him. .

Looking ahead to the 2010 Senate races, when Democrats hope to expand
their 60-seat supermajority and Republicans want to chip away at it,
there are a whole bunch of competitive races on each side -- and with
no immediately obvious sure bets for which seats might flip, a whole
lot could happen.

A lot will depend on the national environment. In marginal cases,
whether it's a Democratic or Republican year, and the extent of this,
can make the difference for the candidates involved, and likely made
the difference in some of those close races in 2004, 2006 and 2008.

See if you can find any way Obamacrats gain of even one seat.
Near certain dead ducks include, Harry Reid, Arlen Specter, & Chris
Dodd. Blanche Lincoln ain't looking so good either. There
are no for certain Republican losses. Plus, unfortunately for Democrats
(and us!), the outlook on every front for 2010 is at best dire. I
think Republicans should "nationalize" these elections under the
umbrella, "We promise to impeach and convict Barack Obama if elected, and follow immediately with Biden." America is verging on wanting these guys strung up.

Sloppy PC security leads to people being framed as downloading child

The UN vs. Anne Bayefsky
Anne Bayefsky stepped to the open microphone. After a short two
minutes, four UN security guards surrounded her, confiscated her UN
pass, and accompanied her to the UN security office.

look just like Stephen Hawking...Relax, I meant like a non-paralyzed
version of him. Feel better?... Fine. Forget I said it."
"You worry too much. Eat some bacon... What? No, I got no idea if it'll make you feel better, I just made too much bacon."

"Son, no one
gives a shit about all the things your cell phone does. You didn't
invent it, you just bought it. Anybody can do that."

"Oh please, you practically invented lazy. People should have to call you and ask for the rights to lazy before they use it."

"I need to change clothes? Wow. That's big talk coming from someone who looks like they robbed a Mervyn's."

"The baby will talk when he talks, relax. It ain't like he knows the cure for cancer and he just ain't spitting it out."

"You sure do like to tailgate people... Right, because it's real important you show up to the nothing you have to do on time."

"Just pay the parking ticket. Don't be so outraged. You're not a

"Son, people will always try and f__k you. Don't waste your life
planning for a f___ing, just be alert when your pants are down."

"I wouldn't worry
about money...No, it has a lot to do with happiness, I just meant YOU
shouldn't worry, cause you'd just piss it away."
